MAC Haul

I've been a terrible blogger recently and haven't posted in  a little while so I'm just catching up tonight so the next few posts won't be very long, mostly just outfit posts from the past week although I am dedicating this post to the naught little trip I took to MAC recently. 

Whilst on the hunt for the perfect brush for my Chanel Tan De Soleil I ventured to MAC with credit card in hand (100% a bad idea!) So I asked one of the sales assistants which brush she would recommend to use with the bronzer and she suggested this one, I was dubious at first because the bronzer is a cream rather than a powder so I thought it would work better with something more dense, but I tried it anyway and unfortunately I was right. Although after splashing £33 (I think) on a brush I knew it had to be put to good use. Luckily it worked amazingly with the skinfinish powder that I bought too (PHEW!)

Anyway I've pictured it here against my Real Techniques Stipling brush just for you to get an idea of the length/shape etc. although it is nowhere near as dense as my Stipling which I use to apply my foundation.

I also couldn't hold myself back from buying this lipstick; after seeing how gorgeous it looked on so many other gorgeous girls' blogs. I did really like the colour of this although I did think it looked a little bit cakey on the lips if you applied even the slightest bit too much and I also think it should definitely be worn with a liner like a shade or half a shade darker as it is just sooooooo pale!  

Lastly I bought this from the same store in 'Soft and Gentle'. I was a teeny weeny bit gutted after my mass search for this same product in the colour 'Lightscapade' I finally found it on display in my local debenhams, although when I asked the girl for it she told me they had none and that they'd only had 6 delivered from the time that they even opened the concession (I mean why put it on display if you have no stock!?) but yeah she convinced me to try the 'Soft and Gentle' instead so I just thought i'd give it a go and I love it! As my highlighter has ran out atm and there's no more in stock I've been using this as a temporary replacement, it's great if you like a more gold-y coloured highlighter rather than like a beige or a silver colour (if that makes sense) This could definitely be used as a bronzer if you wanted although I like my bronzer quite dark and my highligters sparkly so this is awesome, definitely the best of the three!
